The Engineer's Wife - 3/5/07

Apparently my blog from yesterday weirded my poor husband out a little bit. You'd think that after 25 years of living with me he'd be used to all the strangeness that I bring. He is/was an electrical engineer so there is no room in his paradigm of the universe for spirit communication and visits. Its not that he doesn't believe me when I tell him the things that I experience; but he is adamant that he doesn't want to experience them as well. Get used to it sweetie I have a feeling that its only going to get worse!

We went to NIH today for our monthly ENT visit. They did an examination and asked some questions, but still didn't find any palpable signs of the new cancer in the neck that the last CT scan showed. We did find out that the new study has been approved but Warren's blood test isn't back yet to ascertain whether he'll be eligible to participate. We don't go back there until next Tuesday, but we may hear the test results by Friday. If he gets in the study he'll be admitted as an in-patient for the first seven days. Oh joy.

I started a new book today; Carolyn Myss' "Entering the Castle - An Inner Path to God and Your Soul".

Review - posted on Amazon.com
"Entering the Castle is...based on St. Teresa's seven interior mansions, which are explained and elaborated here...so beautifully, clearly, compassionately, lightheartedly, wondrously...[as] seven steps...to your own deepest self or soul. Teresa became not only a spiritual woman who had written a brilliant practice manual, but a saint who saved Caroline life, showed her her soul, awakened her heart, and set her on the never-ending...timelessly fulfilled road of practice. I just know that Teresa would say 'amen' to this luminous book as the fruit of her calling to you, a calling to all of us to be mystics without monasteries in a world sorely in need of a touch of the divine...the true self in each and every one of us."

This has been a windy, busy then quiet day. Tomorrow I must plot out how to best take advantage of the rest of my probably last free week for awhile. Once he gets back in the hospital it will get hectic again. Enjoy your evening. Goodnight.
